I reseted the password with:

/usr/sbin/mysqld --bootstrap --skip-grant-tables --basedir=/
--datadir=/var/lib/mysql << bla
> update mysql.user set password='' where user='root';
> bla

And created a new one with: mysqladmin -u root password NEWPASSWORD

I was afraid the SlimServer could break, but apparently it sets its own
user/database password. And everything is fine now.

Thanks for the quick replies
